Of course, everyone's allowed to think whatever they want. However, there's no way in hell some people (including myself) are ever going to give games like this, or anything else that sells out, any credit whatsoever. This reminds me of a screenshot of a new Transformers cartoon that's coming out. You'd almost think that EA was behind it, to cash in on the name

Have you ever gotten it to work on previous monitors? I've had the game since it came out, and never once got window mode to work.

I thought it was pretty funny when Chavez came here to Harlem NY and offered support for the poor, he was given a standing ovation and openly bashed the president. On his way out, he was all paranoid about snipers

Originally posted by: Sticksboi05 the Senate just approved a bill saying that all automakers must have all vehicles get at least 35 MPG by 2020 so they are trying to do stuff to cut down on emissions.quote> kind of too late for that now, this should have been put in place in the 1970s. And yes, it was possible to do. Pretty sad to think how dangerous this planet is going to be by 2040-2050. Ignorance is bliss, as long as those oil tycoons lived a rich lifestyle and everyone got their sweetheart deals, nothing else matters.

Originally posted by: ExiL3 yes, now Americans can at last blame the Chinese when it comes to pollution! seriously guys, it isn't really about who pollutes the most. Everybody have to change, and the Americans, the Europeans have to help countries like China and India (yes, help not blame). Seanivs: hmm... another thing is, Americans have the money to change, but they have chosen not to for soooo many years... whilst Europe and other parts of the world have allied to control emmisions, USA have CHOSEN not to... take care,quote> actually, a lot of regular people here do a lot to help the environment. Can't blame us all because our government is one of the most evil in the world

Does Wright still own the SC franchise, or was that completely contracted over, too? If he still owns it, this reeks of "sellout"....

that brought about the Gingerbread Incident, a terrible ethnic cleansing civil war.

Originally posted by: north country dude Also, how is it that a personal opinion about this product being geared toward children, based on the interviews, press releases, and posted screen shots from the game, is considered immature? Isn't it the purpose of these things to attract and inform people about an upcoming release? quote> of course...but for some reason, I guess certain people's brains 'click' and turn on to defensive mode, and they feel they have to rebel against the masses and profess their excitement for this game (which I really find to be phony...and if you really are interested in this game, I have a shiny piece of tin foil you might be interested in). I guess the bottom line is that everyone has their own opinion. From an artistic and strategic standpoint, this game doesn't cut it whatsoever. Maybe they are trying to market it to 3-6th graders - I don't know. If that's the case, they'll do well. They just can't expect to get the big 18-25 market with something so ridiculous.

Originally posted by: schm0 Ok, so abandon all hope for the future of the franchise?quote> I think that's already been established with SCS

Originally posted by: Spinmaster Then comes the question, how much positive is there to say about it? quote> That's what I was thinking. Seeing that video doesn't really give someone a reflex to quickly type "whoa, that's awesome!!!1" since it's nothing but the same old thing everyone has already seen with City Life, but at a much more sub-standard level. It was different with Spore. I think almost everyone who saw the very early demo video was floored over it, because it was unlike anything you've seen before.

not for nothing, but this is just going to be a waste of your time, since they won't care.

I love how much of an impact Simtropolis makes. When it hits IGN, you know you've accomplished something

Swamper: amazing work, that really helped make everything look much better.

Originally posted by: By the way, is Will Wright so busy that he cant work on Simcity 5?quote> He got celebrity status in the video game world with the Sims. Sim City is a whim at this point.

great rail station - I love when things are done on a grand scale like that.

I don't think the big sites like IGN & Gamespot will care much about it.

there are several things you'll have to download, here's the list. Personally I've never gotten it to work

you should have chosen a different title for the thread, I thought it was actual news.. :/
